St. Bartholomew's Church

Grade 1 medieval church. The church is full of museum quality artifacts including rare wall paintings. St. Bart's sits in the centre of a caring rural community. The church has wheelchair access, internal ramps, a loop system and books for the visually impaired. The community have formed a 'Friends of Brisley Church' group to help save the building. St. Bart's is on the English Heritage 'at risk' list. We need to raise over £300,000 to rescue the building. The Rector of the church takes a service one Sunday a month, he has 10 other churches to look after in the Benefice. We hold additional services with the support of retired clergy. The church supports the local food bank. There is a lending library and a local history resource centre in the church. The church supports a number of local events, including holding creative arts festivals and music evenings.
